For the past three months, I have had two periods each month, bleeding for a week, having a day without bleeding, and then bleeding for another week. This month, I am four days late for my period, despite having taken the morning-after pill and experiencing symptoms like sore breasts and intense cramps. My periods were previously very regular. What could be causing this irregularity, and what tests or treatments should I consider?

I am having light yellow clumpy discharge that started about a month ago and comes and goes with no odor. My last period just ended yesterday and it comes regularly. What could be causing this discharge and what can I do about it?

I just got my period again, about 10 days after my last cycle. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, I am 19 years old, and I have no significant medical history. This is the first time I've experienced this. I started bleeding lightly yesterday afternoon, which has become heavier today. I don't have any unusual symptoms like genital redness/sores/bumps, urinary symptoms, unusual odor, or unusual cramps. I am sexually active with multiple partners in the past few months. My last pregnancy test was negative, and my last STD screening in July was also negative. How can this be explained, and what should I do next?

I took a pregnancy test on June 3rd, which was negative, and had my period from June 5th. I took another pregnancy test today, which was positive. What does this mean?

I suspect I have vaginal herpes. I'm experiencing a lot of pain and itching between my vagina and anus. I have no health insurance and want to know if there's anything over the counter I can use to ease the symptoms.

I had sexual intercourse on Saturday and have been bleeding since then. I'm on birth control (Nexplanon) and my periods are irregular. The discharge looks like period blood but smells abnormal and is causing vaginal itching. What could be the cause and what should I do?
